Abstract
1356469 Tampons SVENSKA CELLULOSA AB 28 May 1971 [3 June 1970] 17874/71 Heading A5R A tampon comprises a liquid-absorbent material 15 and a protective cover 17 and is compressed such that its dimension in one direction is larger than its dimensions in a direction perpendicular to said first dimension, one such embodiment of the tampon in its uncompressed state consists of a sleeve-shaped body of liquid-absorbent material which is constricted and provided at the place of constriction with means 22, 23 for removing the tampon, the latter in its unused condition being folded over and at least partially compressed to facilitate insertion into the vagina. Various embodiments (Figs. 1-10, 14-17) of the tampon are described including the method of manufacture (Figs. 11-13). The latter comprises the application of material 32 for a protective layer 17 of the tampon onto an endless belt 31, the production of double-folded portions 33 at regular intervals along the belt at right angles to the direction of motion of the belt, the application of a loose absorbent material 34 in a continuous layer onto material 32 over a zone (35) thereof, the subjection of the covered material to uniaxial tension along the longitudinal direction to unfold portions 33 of material 32, the cutting of material 32 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction at the location of the previous double folds, and finally, application of the covered material to a hollow mandrel for forming the constrictions and string attachment and final shaping of the tampon. The absorptive material of the tampon may be compacted, long-fibre-type rayon, dry, defibrillated cellulose pulp, cotton fibres or any fibrous, absorptive material. The protective cover of the tampon preferably consists of a non-woven fabric.
